Nintendo DS Q&A

GameInformer had an informal chat with Nintendo of America's Director of Public Relations, Beth Llewelyn, regarding the newly announced dual-screen Nintendo DS (we need a category for that now..). Suffice to say they didn't find out anything new, but here's a bit from the interview anyway:

Billy: I thought Nintendo was aiming to make gaming simpler. How does having a system with two screens simpler?

Beth: That's probably a difficult thing to answer right now because we have nothing to show you. But I think the bigger picture answer there is that some games out there get very, very complicated, and it may turn away a lot of gamers. So what we want to make sure is we do make games that can be accessible for all gamers - all ages, all types. We're looking for ways to make it fun and easy to get into. I think with this system that is certainly being taken into account. So when the games are being developed for this there are going to be games that are easy to get into. It's just hard to get into explaining it in detail because we can't get into the detail yet. But I think when you see this - and most likely that'll be at E3 - you'll get a much better idea.
